Hi Geri,
I have no idea how it could "suddenly show up". You might have to investigate that with your upstream node.

As for the group, it is supposed to be a discussion group about a specific genre of fiction called LITRPG. I'm quite happy about the topics getting a little broader into various other genres of speculative/fantasy fiction.

The echo is on the Elist database, so it should be listed in the new .NA file that's generated by that. I suppose it's possible that's how it showed up?

However it happened, glad to have you aboard!

All the best
John

I suppose so. Or perhaps.. "the story that never ends." :D

Sometimes. Mostly, fantasy stories that have game-like mechanics as part of the plot.

UPDATE on my take on the matter: it's like a "game" that never
never ends.

I still have to revisit Bob! I've been pulled to other
readings ("normal" novels) in the meantime. :/

Reading my biweekly fixes of the serial Monroe has been a staple for me for about the last two years. I love reading about our feline overlord and his feckless servant ;-)

Honestly, when the book/series eventually comes to an end I'm going to really miss it.

Yeah, it seems that whenever a new echo suddenly appears, the BACKBONE.NA file does not get updated. Which reminds me, I wonder just WHEN the last time that file was updated.

... Nine times out of ten the statisticians are wrong

Sorry. Real names should be turned on for my system in this area now.

Take a look at the "echolist" and "elist" echos. The backbone.na should be updated in the monthly files sent in one of those areas.

Awesome.

They are probably correct more often than most humans are ....
